[PATCH] ppc64: remove bogus f50 hack in prom.c 

The code that parses the OF device tree contains an old bogus hack which
was killed a long time ago on ppc32, but survived in ppc64.  It was
supposed to help with a problem on the f50 which is ...  a 32 bits machine
:) Additionally, that hack is causing problems, so let's just get rid of
it.
